Presented by Pete Gamber, Alta Loma Music and "The Lesson Room" Columnist, Music Inc. Magazine with Guests

Welcome to 2010! Things aren't the way they used to be! It’s not just changes in the music industry, but changes in our country, economy and the world that will cause changes in our business and the way we approach our music lesson programs. You need to kill the "cruise control" and instead "Floor it!" when it comes to your lesson program. Find out how to recruit new students and retain them. Discover how to find new teachers and make them part of your team. Learn how to promote product and services through your lesson rooms. Join Pete Gamber and a panel of music industry leaders as they share ideas and programs that you can take home and easily put into motion to make your lesson program "roar down the highway"!

*Attendees can join in for one, two or all three parts of this session, beginning every 30 minutes.
